Wanderful the podcast is created and hosted by arts-in-business innovator David Pearl to help you bring a bit of wonder to your walking. Inspired by David’s not-profit social movement Street Wisdom that brings free guided in-person and online walking workshops to city streets in 80 countries and counting. Each episode takes an entertaining and light- hearted look at an aspect of life we all secretly struggle with or want to get better at: optimism, creativity, relationships, wealth, direction… you get the idea. We’ll start the walks by exploring the everyday challenge in the company of an entertaining and refreshingly, imperfectly human, guest. Then, following simple instructions provided by David, the walk becomes a way to get clarity, insight and learn new skills you can use every day to help you find answers to your life questions. All you need is some headphones and a phone so you can get outside and walk whilst listening, but if you are tuning in at home then walking (slowly) inside your house, also works well too. You can dig deeper into the power of wandering and getting off the beaten track in David’s book Wanderful: Human Navigation for a Complex World available at leading bookstores.

Philip Cowell is the Creative Development Director of The Good Chance Theatre, which creates productions that tell big stories of hope and humanity, building Dome theatres across the world, working together with refugees and local people and collaborating with a large ensemble of refugee artists to create visionary new art.
Philip is also an established author, curator, creator and poet. In fact… he is the poet-at-large for David Pearl’s social venture, Street Wisdom: a brilliant creator of poems with an uncanny ability to make poems up on the spot.
David caught up with Philip in his new home, Berlin, where he talks about his delight in ‘not-knowing’… and how this colours his approach to writing poetry. Along the way we discover more about his coming-out as a gay man, why science loves getting it wrong and how we can be okay with that nudge which pushes you in a direction which you feel you have to take... but you just… don’t… know… why.
